2/2 I continued blogging Alberniweather and on FB and Twitter but I gradually removed my personal self from Facebook and eventually during the Pandemic, I decided the Facebook environment was just too toxic even for weather stuff and I shut down my page and left Facebook completely.
The impact on traffic to Alberniweather.ca and its prominence in the community was, and still is, significant.
I have diehard followers, many who have become friends over the years, I still get the odd call from media, or even the public about random weather things.
I have good connections with a few folks at Environment Canada (though their staff have become thinner and more transient :(
and major events still get spikes of local traffic but I since about 2022, and after I removed myself from Twitter that year, I don’t blog nearly as much. I would do a few posts in a week, and then go months without posting. I just got out of the habit I guess.
But I am still interested in the weather. I still feel like Alberniweather is a useful service for people in my community. I still feel a willing obligation to inform people about the weather and I believe I am trusted to do so by the public and local leaders. I’ve never made any money at it, I sold ad space on the website for a few years but it wasn’t worth the hassle and I didn’t feel comfortable taking the money when I was councillor. I have had some generous spontaneous donations at times.
But mainly I do it because it’s interesting, and I hope it is useful for people especially when people are looking for information during a major event.
The highest traffic I have ever had on Alberniweather pre-FB exit was the local Dog Mountain forest fire in 2015.
post-FB exit: the #underwoodfire
People want easy access to reliable local, trusted, information.
Large media orgs have mostly given up on this.
I am grateful we still have an active local newspaper and radio and that both trust me and I trust them.

Just to make sure my followers here are aware as well: I am not planning on filing any bills this term, due to a combination of chamber composition, increased complexity in the LSR submission forms, the move of committees to Granite Place while the LOB is being renovated, and general depression/despair/futility. Colleagues are encouraged to steal my ideas from me for their own bills. The filing period closes this Friday, September 19th, at the close of business hours.

𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐬 𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐞 Here's Bob B again, demonstrating a lot of progress in socialization now that he lets us pet him -- most followers of my Instagram seem to be in Asia: #cats

A whole month in jail? Meanwhile, Hayden Edwards is still dead, and this couple's children are likely still at risk. And I get it: #ReligiousFreedom is a thing. But where's the line? #religion

Christian parents let their baby die while awaiting a miracle. They'll be in jail for a month.
Blair and Taylor Edwards’ 30-day sentence has reignited outrage over Followers of Christ Church’s deadly beliefs

I'm not that desperate that I want followers at any cost.
I think I blocked 2 people who spammed gofundme and then blocked 1 with 0 posts but had followed 1k people
